Analysis and Synthesis of Theoretical and Practical Implications of Case Management Model and Notation
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Theoretical Background
2.1. Case Management
Business Artefacts
2.2. CMMN
- Case Plan Model is the outermost element, within which the whole case is presented and defined.
- Task is a central element that defines a single action, a unit of work that needs to be performed. There are different types of task: Non-Blocking Human Task (i.e., Manual Task), Blocking Human Task (i.e., User Task), Case Task, Process Task, and Decision Task.
- Case File Item is an element that defines data (e.g., document, file) required for case processing.
- Stage may be considered as an “episode” or a “phase” of one case. Elements, like Tasks with Connectors, can be united within one Stage element.
- Milestone represents an achievable target, defined to enable the evaluation of progress of the case.
- Event Listeners is an element that waits for an event in a case to trigger other elements, like Tasks or Stages. There are two different types of Event Listeners: Timer Event Listener and User Event Listener.
- Sentry (Sentries) is a combination of an “event and/or condition”. It is not a stand-alone element; it needs to be part of the Case Plan Model, Stage, Task or Milestone. It is graphically represented with a rhombus: Entry Criterion (for entry condition) with a white rhombus and Exit Criterion (for exit condition) with a black rhombus (Figure 1).
- Connectors can be used to visualise dependencies between elements but do not have associated execution semantics.
